A. K. DELANEY CLAIMS THAT THE
BEHRING SEA BELONGS TO THE UNITED
STATES -OTToWA, Ont, Oct. 13.-The
government here has received from Sitka
a copy of the brief prepared by A. K.
Delaney as counsel for the United States
in the seal fisheries dispute. Mr. Delaney
takes the position that Behring sea is not
portion of the open or high sea, but is
an inland water cut off from the ocean
and essentially land-locked. He says:
'If a sea is entirely enclosed by the terri
tories Of nation, and has no other COM
munication With the ocean than by a
channel of which that nation may take
possession. 1t appears that such sea is
no less capable of being occupied and be-
coming property than the land, and it
ought to follow the fate of the country
that surrounds it," Mr.. Delaney makes
numerous references to prove that Russia
always asserted that Behring sea was an
inland water, and that the United States
has always maintained the same position
since she acquired title.

a Rifle With Steel Bullets.

1'he French Government is expert
menting with new rifle called the Pra-
lon gun. The great advantage OF the
new weapon is bullet of steel to re-
place that of lead. The steel bullet be-
ing much less in weight than the leaden
would enable the soldier to carry p
greater number of cartridges, which
is of essential Importance. 1t also in
creases the celebrity of the bullet on
leaving the gun, which circumstance
decreases fhe curve made by the projec-
tile and considerably reduces the Jerk
suffered by the gunner on dischargine
the weapon. These advantages are
great. Nevertheless, the weapon has
not yet been found perfect, and can not
vet be adopted. But it opens a new
field of further improvements in gun
